This indicates the occupation has already returned to similar pre-pandemic shortages. The pressure on trucking companies\u2019 recruitment, training, and retention initiatives is thus not going away anytime soon.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur industry remains vital to the economy \u2013 we know the longer it takes to better address driver shortages, the longer it will take for us to see a full economic recovery\u201d\u00a0says Craig Faucette, Director of policy and programs at Trucking HR Canada.\u00a0 \u201cWe continue to actively monitor changes and challenges in the labour market to ensure the industry is well informed, which is why our LMI employer survey is a crucial next step.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>We just launched the 2021 Employer Survey &#8211; to help uncover further data on employment changes resulting from COVID-19, expected challenges moving forward, and what supports employers need for the future. Trucking HR Canada invites all owners and HR professionals of trucking and logistics companies across Canada to have their voices heard by participating in the survey. All participating organizations will receive an invitation to an exclusive early release briefing of the survey results for 2021.<\/p>\n<p><strong>To take the 2021 Employer Survey click\u00a0<\/strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/ca1se.voxco.com\/SE\/82\/thrc_employer_survey_2021\/\">HERE<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>To read the LMI snapshot, click\u00a0<\/strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/truckinghr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/THRC-LMI-snapshot-June-2021.pdf\">HERE<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Trucking HR Canada released today a labour market information (LMI) update, providing a snapshot of truck driver employment in Canada.
